So I see a CL ad in Madison for a portable Weber grill. Guy has a link in the ad to Amazon for a Weber Smokey Joe Gold, exactly what I wanted to build a Smokey Jose. So I e-mail the guy, tell him I'll give him a little more than he's asking and try to arrange a time to get it (about 2 miles from my office).
I chit you not, over the course of a week and a half, it took 11 e-mails, 2 phone calls, a text message, and the guy bumping his ad on 2 separate occassions before I finally picked it up today.
So I knock on the door, tell him I'm there for the grill. He says it's out back. I walk behind the house and meet him by the garage. He picks up and hands me a JUMBO JOE! (SJ Platinum, DU date code)
Needless to say I was pshyched!
It isn't what I wanted, and I'm not sure what I'm gonna do with it, but at least I have it now, and it will land in the hands (one way or another) of a Weber fan who will appreciate it!
SCORE!!!
